Dragonette-004: Hyperspectral intelligence from orbit

Built and operated in collaboration with Loft Orbital, this satellite represents the continued growth of the Dragonette constellation, delivering rich, high-fidelity hyperspectral data to customers around the globe.

Today, Dragonette-004 is capturing stunning, information-dense imagery that reveals the world in remarkable detail. From vegetation health to water quality and coastal monitoring, each pixel contains spectral insights invisible to conventional imaging. These new images showcase the capabilities of Wyvern’s expanding constellation and the value of high-precision, space-based spectral data.

Transforming How We See the World

When Wyvern was founded, we believed hyperspectral imaging could transform agriculture, forestry, energy, defence, and environmental management alike. But access to such data was rare, expensive, and technically complex. The Dragonette constellation changes that by delivering high-quality, ready-to-use hyperspectral imagery at scale.

Customers are already leveraging Wyvern data to:

1. Monitor crop and vegetation health with unmatched precision.
2. Identify tree species and map fuel loads to support wildfire mitigation.
3. Assess ecosystem changes in water and coastal regions.
4. Improve situational awareness and environmental intelligence in defence and security contexts.

With every new satellite, Wyvern expands capacity, increases revisit frequency, and strengthens the reliability of hyperspectral intelligence for real-world applications.

Speaking of Capacity

Here’s what makes Dragonette-004 so important. It marks a shift away from small CubeSats toward more capable spacecraft platforms. Dragonette-004 has a significantly larger imaging and downlink capacity than Wyvern’s first three satellites, putting more data in customers’ hands, faster.

Alongside this greater capacity, the mission also demonstrates improvements in data latency and delivery performance, ensuring insights reach customers sooner. Thanks to our collaboration with Loft Orbital, Dragonette-004 benefits from advanced onboard systems and a streamlined tasking architecture designed for reliability and scalability.

Dragonette-004 is available to task now, with data already being delivered to customers across agriculture, forestry, and environmental monitoring sectors.

A Foundation for the Future

With Dragonette-004 in service and Dragonette-005 preparing to launch shortly, Wyvern’s constellation is scaling to meet the growing global demand for high-quality hyperspectral imagery.

Each new satellite adds capacity and resilience building toward a future where space-based hyperspectral imagery becomes essential to decision-making.

The view from space has never been clearer.
